Privacy Policy
Last updated: April 2026
The short version: Cloud Clipper does not collect, store, or transmit any personal data to our servers. Your clips go directly from your browser to your own Google Drive.
What Cloud Clipper does
Cloud Clipper is a Chrome browser extension that converts web pages to Markdown and saves them to your Google Drive account. All processing happens locally in your browser.
Data we do not collect
- We do not collect your name, email address, or any personal identifiers
- We do not store the content of pages you clip
- We do not log which pages you visit or clip
- We do not use analytics or tracking on your clipping activity
- We do not sell data to third parties — we have no data to sell
Google Drive access
Cloud Clipper requests permission to access your Google Drive in order to save clipped files. This access is used solely to create and save Markdown files in folders you specify. We use Google's official OAuth 2.0 authentication — your Google credentials are never seen or stored by Cloud Clipper.
Cloud Clipper's use of Google Drive is limited to creating files on your behalf. We do not read, modify, or delete any existing files in your Drive.
Local storage
Cloud Clipper stores the following data locally in your browser using Chrome's built-in storage:
- Your chosen Drive folder ID and name
- Your default tag preference
- Your Google account email address (for display in settings only)
This data never leaves your device except as part of the standard Chrome sync mechanism, which is controlled entirely by your own Google account settings.
Third-party services
Cloud Clipper communicates directly with Google's APIs (Drive API, OAuth) to save files and authenticate. Your use of these services is subject to Google's Privacy Policy.
Changes to this policy
If we make material changes to this privacy policy, we will update the date above. Continued use of the extension after changes constitutes acceptance of the updated policy.
